@Benny The main problem is that your example of a human parent ignores all of the limits humans have, bith as children and as adults. A being with omnipotence and omniscience has no such limits, so treating it as if it did is a sort of equivoation.
Also, if by evil you mean suffering, then it isn't question-begging to say God, if he exists, allows for suffering. After all, you're just defining what you mean by the term.
